fruit_n and_o bless_a will_n all_o they_o be_v that_o be_v find_v in_o the_o faith_n for_o it_o be_v they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o vine_n and_o therein_o abide_v which_o will_v yield_v unto_o the_o

neither_o shall_v the_o subtle_a fox_n of_o the_o wood_n have_v power_n to_o crop_v and_o spoil_v their_o tender_a branch_n that_o abide_v in_o the_o live_a vine_n neither_o shall_v they_o ever_o be_v

neither_o will_v he_o suffer_v the_o swine_n to_o destroy_v his_o young_a plant_n that_o be_v new_o come_v up_o but_o by_o his_o power_n they_o shall_v be_v fence_v nourish_v and_o keep_v and_o so_o all_o my_o dear_a friend_n be_v not_o at_o all_o discourage_v although_o the_o furnace_n may_v yet_o be_v hot_a for_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o suffer_v his_o gold_n to_o come_v to_o loss_n therein_o
